Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1355: Chapter 415: Open Displays of Affection

Hearing this from the Wuling City Lord, Ye Lingyue and Di Shen were both taken aback, not knowing what he meant.

”Because this Jiu Provinces Hunting is something every city must participate in. In previous years, City Lord Si Yun had abstained from participating. I think now that City Lord Ye has taken over, you should be participating in the Jiu Provinces Hunting.”

The Wuling City Lord said with a smile.

City Lord Si Yun had been mentally and physically exhausted due to the affairs concerning Old City Lord Si. Her nature wasn’t competitive, so she hadn’t participated in the Wild Hunt.

Also, because of her persistent refusal to participate in the Wild Hunt, the reputation of Huangquan City in the Ancient Nine Provinces had gradually worsened. Some even said that Huangquan City was just a worthless city without a single decent demon hunter.

Of course, Ye Lingyue only gradually learned about these things after participating in the Jiu Provinces Hunting.

But now with Ye Lingyue taking over Huangquan City, her youthful vigor, along with her reliable companions and a group of beast pets, these were Ye Lingyue’s leverage to rise in the Ancient Nine Provinces.

”Participating in the Jiu Provinces Hunting can greatly enhance Huangquan City’s reputation and your personal status in the Jiu Provinces Alliance. If both Huangquan City and you can make it to the Jiu Provinces Heaven and Earth List, the revival of Huangquan City will not be far off. Entering the Central Region to hunt demons can also significantly boost your strength.”

The Wuling City Lord spoke, and there was a crafty glint in his old eyes.

He knew that only if Ye Lingyue also participated in the Jiu Provinces Hunting, would Di Shen be more motivated.

Jiu Provinces Heaven and Earth List?

Ye Lingyue was unfamiliar with the Wild Hunt and the Jiu Provinces Heaven and Earth List. At this point, the Old City Lord could also keep it under wraps, saying that if Ye Lingyue truly wanted to know, she would learn the particulars just by participating in the Wild Hunt.

Ye Lingyue didn’t particularly care about these empty titles, but what the Wuling City Lord said about entering the Central Region caught her interest.

”Wuling City Lord, the Central Region you mentioned earlier, is it the area overrun by the Demon Clan?”

Ye Lingyue asked.

Wasn’t that where Little Jiu Nian had gone missing earlier?

It was also the area where Ye Lingyue intended to explore with Di Shen to find the road to the Demon World. Ye Lingyue had planned to stabilize the situation in Huangquan City before finding a way to enter the Central Region.

However, during her time in Shui City, Ye Lingyue had inquired with City Lord Yang, who told her that only veteran demon hunters authorized by the Jiu Provinces Alliance or those of a rank above Hall Master could freely enter and exit the Central Region. Others were not allowed to enter on their own.

Otherwise, once discovered, it would be considered illegal entry, and they would face opposition from the entire Jiu Provinces Alliance and every city in the Ancient Nine Provinces.

Yet Ye Lingyue also heard that all city lords in the Ancient Nine Provinces automatically became members of the Jiu Provinces Alliance.

But only the city lords of major cities could be ranked as Hall Masters. A city lord like Ye Lingyue, from a novice city like Huangquan City, could at best be equivalent in status to a Patrol Envoy like Jiang Ce. Advancing to Hall Master status would require significant battle achievements.

Ye Lingyue had been troubled by this, but it was at this time that the Wuling City Lord informed her of the Jiu Provinces Hunting.

After some consideration, Ye Lingyue had made up her mind.

”Thank you, Old City Lord, for your reminder. I have decided to lead Huangquan City in participating in this Jiu Provinces Hunting. Should we meet during the Wild Hunt, I would appreciate your guidance, City Lord.”

Ye Lingyue made a respectful gesture.

Though Ye Lingyue often worried, wondering what would happen once Di Shen recovered all of his soul fragments, entering the Central Region, finding the demon road, entering the Demon World, and seeking out Little Jiu Nian and Di Shen’s remaining soul, these matters could no longer be delayed.

Moreover, she had now reached the Fifth Layer of the Heaven and Earth Tribulation. If she wanted to make further breakthroughs, staying cooped up in a small Huangquan City could no longer fulfill her cultivation needs.

”City Lord Ye is too kind. I will take Di Shen with me for now; we’ll meet again in Xuanwu City.”

The Wuling City Lord laughed heartily.

He had always known that Ye Lingyue was extraordinary.

A phoenix destined to soar high in the sky, he finally understood why Di Shen was so enamored with Ye Lingyue.

Xuanwu City?

Guangzi’s ears perked up immediately.

”Is the Jiu Provinces Hunting in Xuanwu City? Then, see you there.”

Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but glance at Di Shen, who gave her a deep look before stepping forward quickly.

Di Shen gazed at Ye Lingyue.

Suddenly, Ye Lingyue realized that Di Shen had unknowingly grown much taller than her.

The Di Shen whom she had ”raised” single-handedly had turned into a majestic man.

His chin had already developed a shadow of stubble, and his charming phoenix eyes exuded a spirited energy, projecting an overwhelming aura just by standing in front of her.

Di Shen turned slightly, blocking everyone’s view.

”Wife, we’re about to be separated. Who knows how long it will be before we meet again?”

Di Shen squinted his eyes, gazing at Ye Lingyue with a look that was both familiar and unfamiliar to her.

Ye Lingyue was in a dilemma, but seeing Di Shen’s stance, she feared that if left unappeased, he would refuse to leave.

Ye Lingyue let out a light sigh, intending to scold Di Shen.

But Di Shen didn’t give her a chance to speak. His eyes were filled with playful satisfaction, as if saying:

”Wife, this is of your own doing.”

Around them, everyone felt quite awkward due to Di Shen and Ye Lingyue’s actions, turning their heads away, some looking at their toes, some glancing at the sky, some chatting, yet there was always that one who didn’t know better...

”Hey, let go...” Guangzi, seeing this, was fuming, rolling up her sleeves, ready to throw a punch at Di Shen, only to be quickly stopped by Qin Xiaochuan.

”Guangzi, don’t get involved. Sixth Brother won’t see Sixth Sister-in-law for a while. A day apart feels like three autumns.” Qin Xiaochuan envied Di Shen’s daring; unlike him, who up to now hadn’t even dared to touch Miss Guangzi’s hand.

”Three autumns my foot, my...”

The miniature version of Ye Lingguang howled internally, thinking of his sister.

He vowed definitely to separate his sister from that annoying scoundrel!!
